<p><font size="4" face="Times New Roman">Hi,<br>
<br>
I have configured one of my DNS servers to run the dns test native to xymon. I have the directive "dns" specified in the bb-hosts file and the test shows up as a column however the test does NOT perform a lookup of the servers dns A record as it should. All i get is the "Service DNS on SERVER.DOMAIN.COM is OK (up) and then a graph immediately below.<br>
<br>
I have also tired using the </font><font size="5" face="Courier New">dns=a:server.domain.com with no luck either.</font><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><br>
<br>
I have posted a screen shot on PhotoBucket - </font><a href="http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx256/mfisher_xymon/dns.jpg"><u><font size="4" color="#0000FF" face="Times New Roman">http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx256/mfisher_xymon/dns.jpg</font></u></a><font size="4" face="Times New Roman"><br>
<br>
Does anybody have any insight as to why the dns lookups are not being ran? </font>
